Thank you for your annual quantum computing update. Your ability to present this material in an extremely lucid manner along with citations really elevates your channel content to a level not typically experienced on youtube. Much appreciate the work you put into this endeavor.
Indeed a small SDR would be wonderful to have as a module for part of pi or such, and a video to go alongside. (I must say I was very intrigued by the card computer last week. I've been debating throwing it on my list.)
Remember to be careful of what frequencies you broadcast on! It may be illegal to broadcast on some frequencies without a license so check your county’s laws.
@@karandiya8179 I have a USB SDR dongle. Played with it for a bit but then discovered a really significant side effect/design flaw: Heat. While they work as advertised, those cheap little SDR packages also get extremely hot to the point that they could start melting components and initiate an electrical fire. Also, half of the interesting stuff you might want to look at is encrypted these days, which the SDR obviously can't decode. You can see the communication happening on the visualization software, but it's useless without a decryption key.
I wrote an essay about quantum computers in 1985 Usenet. Basic idea was that we were operating in "branching time" and one of those branches might sometimes be applicable in the present timeline. This was done in totally tongue-in-cheek of course, because I am stupid-as-duck. To my astonishment leading experts, like David Deutch, started discussing this approach, but I did not understand much anything.
Great topic to start the week with! I love keeping up with technology, code and AI development, but life gets busy and it is fantastic to get updates from my armchair and a good cup of coffee! As ever, thank you!
A police officer pulls over Heisenberg. The officer asks, "Do you know how fast you were going?" Heisenberg responds, "No, but I know exactly where I am." The officer informs him, "You were going 20 miles over the speed limit." Heisenberg looks panicked and says, "Great, now I'm lost!"
Quantum computers can simultaneously provide you the correct answer and the incorrect answer both at the same time. seems more like a politician than a computer.
Thank you for the update. I've been on the subject for years and have studied as far as knowledge is available. The superposition is a bit of a definition matter. It doesn't actually mean that a particle can have two states simultaneously. It merely means that the moment the position is being measured, the state has changed to an unknown due to extreme speeds and unpredictable quantum dynamics. The problem with Qubits is devising dependable and viable means of chance calculation with the lowest error rate possible. Entanglement is well explained here. Long distance communication by this phenomena is opening a box of pandore but the potential is off the scale. Thanks for the update.
@@ExplainingComputers Are there parralels between Q-computing and a watercomputer? And if you're able to "listen" in to the error-correction are they really that safe as a means of communication?
I have been wondering that since Gold, in a monatomic state, can achieve superconductivity at room temperature, why nobody has ever considered trying to design a Quantum Computer using that instead of relying on the Supercooling method for achieving superconductivity. Depending on the amount of Monatomic Gold is required, it might end up being far cheaper to operate in the long run
Thanks Chris for this update video and your excellent analysis on Quantum Computers! Now I hope I’m in still a state in Quantum Flux, when you make your 1st personal Quantum computer video…😂! Have a great day!
For practical applications, quantum computers have solved pathing problems. In one case, 90% of a new circuit was discarded due to observable quantum effect supplanting the need for most of the circuit's logic. The other case was fuel transportation paths. In this case, a quantum computer increased the path-efficiency by 45%. It was earlier attempted with classical algorithms with no solution reached.
Very interesting, it's great seeing where we are heading. Quantum computing will just happen on the back end systems and networks, we won't even know it. Anyway, the first computer I maintained was a CDC6600 (designed by Seymour Cray), so I've been looking forward for a long time.
And even a small quantum computer can do in less than a second---for certain computations---what a Cray 3 took a week to complete. Progress huh? I suggest we don't allow CrowdStrike to get their hands on one 🙂
If it is 'quantum' U do not need a 'network' & there is no 'speed', because 'superposition' means it is instantaneous, & 'entanglement' means U don't need 2 connect them. It's all a ridiculous $cam. N E 'quantum network' isn't =)) Wat U wood hav insted iz 2 'devices' separated by empty space & no 'wireless' or whatever else, & could transmit (4 example) random binary code overseas & compare the pattern 2 show it matches. Nobody has done this, & if they pretend they did, it is fraud. It will never happen because 'superposition' & 'entanglement' do not exist. They R theoretical math bull$hit like the 'parallel universes' theories = just sillyness.
Thank you Chris for the interesting update even though I found some of it difficult to comprehend. Hopefully as the technology moves from infancy to maturity in the not to distant future it’ll be something that can benefit the future of Human kind through medical research, engineering & science etc. You mentioned about security of quantum computing clusters being impossible to intercept communications without being detected, what’s to stop a state player with a quantum system eventually hacking into it & causing havoc around the World? :)
It would be nice if you could do a video about how computers generate random numbers. There are many misconceptions about this topic, and when I asked myself this question, I couldn’t find a good video explaining it. Thanks!

quantumstability at room temperature(and far above) now also is a thing. even though that speciffic tech is designed and tested(as in confirmed working reliably in pretty much any normal circumstances without needing something to clean the signal or stabilize it) for quantum actuation instead of quantum computing. as the device from which the very first prototype made the same morning the effect as discovered/come up with, using materials just laying around actually directly worked, this should suggest how stable it is and how easy to make it once you know how it works. the researcher/innovator however mostly focussed on the effect behind it, but the device itself is essentially a quantum programmer. which is in simple words a device which can create stable or semi stable quantum effects in normal materials with ease and also easily alter them. so controlled programmable quantum effects. which allows to quite litterally program and controll physics themselves, ofcource rigth now it is mostly just done for certain quantum effects which normally only happen in special materials around the absolute 0 point, but once in the hand of random hackers and other forms of hobbyists and developers people can make way more effects with it based on this tech and the simple principle behind it. in normal materials like mercury, aluminium, wood(living), and also the same silicone wafers used for chip making. as in that on it's very first day it was already possibly to mass produce it using standard production processes(technically seen as there was no direct layout design for such mashines to use, but that is very easy compared to even super simple chip designs. these could then both hold the hardware to program it as well as the materials being programmed. I originally designed this device to test amplifying certain measurement methods, as well as to simulate certain quantum effects which normally only happen at insanely cold temperatures, but got it working without any funding and without any proper materials, just some electronics thigns I just had laying around, a arduino uno to power it and controll it combined with a small physical setup. and having many scrapped parts from old electronics devices many of which might be damaged or broken, and cheap parts which probably are ripoffs or failed items with terrible quality compared to the real deal. one of the existing quantum technologies listed in the video seems to be close to it in some ways of it's base working from what I got when rapidly looking up it's working. even though I ofcource only rapidly looked it up, and also from that it still has notable differences, since the most easy way to describe how the quantum programmer works is by creating some kind of gohst matter, or quantum mater, which is kind of like a new form of virtual matter which can overlay and exist in or move through normal physical matter, essentially it is quantum matter, which only really exists in the "quantum realm"(note that this is heavily oversimplified, you can also find and detect it normally with the right hardware, but then it won't be a material, since the reason it forms that material like state is because essentially it programs things in other dimensions like the Time dimension as well as things which most people would not even see like a realm or dimension but this tech can treat them as such, hard to explain without telling exactly how it works, since the base working is very simple and logic since it is actually the same way normal physics effects and mater are formed. how modular it is is fascinating however, since it kind of is like wizard magic but then technological, entire new areas which where never even concidered now opening up to potentially actually be very easy and cheap. also controllable quantum effects means that unlike traditional quantum effects which stay static when on and don't work when off, these effects can be programmed and can change shape or change their effect or power. it is truly fun. sadly not really any interest from groups who have the capacity to properly publish it and help protect it against patent trolls and such. also ofcource since this is one of those things where despite it already working many people would still doubt it working and also can't see the potential, for that it would require disclosing how exactly it works, which is very risky in this field since if you are a small hobbyist who isn't rich or famous, in that field over 99% of the time some random other person will just copy it and run away with it.
It is interesting to see how fast Quantum Computing has gone. It is also scary at the same time, since it will take a quantum computer to run real AI. We must use wisdom and patience to make sure the servant doesn't become the master.
Greetings Mr Barnatt. Nice of you for dropping this quantum computing update video. It appears that IBM is likely a player that's making any headway in utilising the quantum technologies. China and likes might have jumped the bandwagon enthusiastically, but they're suffering from the lack of problems to solve. Reasoning why the Chinese have stuttered in their run this year. Let's see how this year unfolds in the application aspect.
'Quantum Computing' is a bit of a money laundering $cam on top of the more obvious fraud, like 'modern art' that isn't 'art' at all but just splashes & swooshes, & crazy prices 2 'move funds around' 2 their buddies. The very idea of 'superposition' 'entanglement' is all a big joke.
As of 2024, quantum computing continues to advance rapidly, with several key developments and trends emerging: ### 1. **Increased Qubit Counts** - Many companies and research institutions are achieving higher qubit counts in their quantum processors.

The potential applications of quantum computing continue to expand, promising transformative impacts in various fields. 👍👌
Outstanding summary ! Materials science is bound to benefit substantially from qantum computing. The ability to use a whole range of material properties across an immense set of combinations to quickly find optimal solutions could be important for the ongoing development of renewable technologies. Power generation from fusion also depends on the development of many new materials (practical tritium breeding blankets for example)
Quantum computers utilize "qubits," which harness the properties of particles such as "spin." Electrons, as quantum objects, exist in an unpredictable superposition state, typically observed as "up" and "down" due to the Stern-Gerlach experiment. In this superposition, an electron's state vector can point in any direction simultaneously, representing an infinite number of states between "up" and "down." Despite the mathematical differences between negative and positive states in quantum mechanics, they are physically identical and experimentally indistinguishable. Quantum computers exploit this superposition property to perform immense computations instantaneously.
I just wish, I didn't have to blindly believe this multistate bits. I mean how can the computer get the correct instruction. So bits can be 1, 0, and both at the same time. How does a computer decide which state it represents? I'm confused? But I know you wouldn't lie to us, so you get my vote. Thanks for sharing, Chris.
I’ll pull a Cunningham’s law and practice: They’re quite good at generating numbers simultaneously. It can be used for password cracking. If there’s a 2 bit computer, there are 4 states 2^2. 32 bits, is 2^32, is 4.3 billion possible states. A perfectly stable quantum computer only needs 32 qubits to generate 4.3 billion possible combinations at the same time. They’re also incredibly good at large prime factorization. This can do some fancy stuff like being faster than Shor’s algorithm. That allows it to crack asymmetric cryptography in a realistically short time. You can also see that their power increases exponentially with qubits instead of linearly with transistors.
@@yensteel Thank you for trying to help me grapple with what to me is like conjuring something out of nothing. I am 64 and now have a new appreciation of why my grandparents found things so hard to understand. I'm don't think it's an age thing as much as the era we grew up in (we almost seem sort of; tied there).
@@brianwood5220 To be honest, I’m confused here as well. Just wanted to break the ice XD. Most of the people in the world are confused with quantum computing, we’re not alone :)
@@yensteel The things you mention like password cracking and prime factorization are things it could do if they make it work at scale, right? But they can't come close to that, can they? Isn't it all hype and VC funding at this stage? And how do you perform logical operations on two qbits? And how do you make a "quantum network" using entanglement? Doesn't Bell's theorem preclude that? I don't know anything about this topic either, but it seems like the hype is out of control. I'll pay more attention when it can do something impressive.
@@jcc4tube The prime factorization algorithm has been developed and tested by the Chinese already. The other things like merging them with classical computing are experimental. It is getting some hype, as it’s a new topic and I am upset that google pulled some marketing stunts. Still, these kinds of tech needs many years, even decades to bear fruit. For example, EUV, the manufacturing technique that lets TSMC make such small and efficient chips down to 2nm was invented in the 1980s. Researchers at the time thought 3 other techniques had higher potential before taking it more seriously. It took 30 years to make it a workable tech in manufacturing. Many skeptics here don’t realize how much effort and steps are needed to get a technology feasible and seem far too short sighted and impatient.
10:35 Superposition is a single state (just one comprised of a linear combination of terms that are _also_ valid states) so the claim that qubits "exist in more than one state" is interpretation dependent opinion rather than statement of fact (at least for widely accepted values of "exist" :). (just a pet peeve about how quantum physics is presented, especially to lay people)
Whilst I appreciate your point, I always check (and re-check periodically) against a great many sources when making any statement in my quantum computing videos. And the notion that qubits can exist in more than more state is very widely presented, including by Microsoft and any others.
The shame in all of this is how to most individual, they don't see how much potential this will change. The light bulb/transistor method is due to be superseded. What we currently have as computers and networks just won't be the same. 👍
What about this for a quantum project 'The infinite improbability drive' able to cross interstellar space in a second, without mucking about in Hyperspace, now there's a thought for a road trip. 😉
@@Praxibetel-Ix Yeah we could do a round trip, first stop Mars, Saturn, Jupiter & Venus then visit a few moons ending up with Uranus & still be back in time for dinner 😂
The real question is how long before QC becomes the most-hyped tech, taking the crown from AI? I mean, it's already a buzzword, but generally we have to have a period of excessive hype followed by everybody giving up on it before actually getting a useful quantum platform to market can happen.
Hello there. I was wondering: have you made a video about antiviruses for Linux? This to me is the biggest flaw about the distributions. That whole “it's more secure than Windows” thing isn't enough for me.
I've not, as antivirus for Linux is rare and debatabe in use -- Linux simply does not allow applications of any kind to me installed without user autorization. But I may cover this in a video at some point soon! It is certainly topical, given that the "Windows problem" last week was not a Windows problem at all, but rather a problem using a particular, third-party anti-malware program in Windows! :)
Hey Chris's...can you make a video about Google play market witch is close in 6 weeks..? I understand that the google try to transform Android in Apple product...please,this is very important for billions of users..
Ah, you noticed! In a couple of places I for some reason said "Riverland", and had to replace the wording during the edit. I recorded scores of versions, but matching a word is tough! :)
We are the edge of quantum computing looking toward the future of vast and endless possibilities. Once they iron out the bit flip errors then we will be good to go. Amazon and IBM are spending plethora amounts of cash on their own development of quantum computing. They would not be investing in this technology unless they see the potential and $$$$ from it. I am excited to see the quantum footprint grow in 2025!
I'll believe more when I can experience it. There have been too many false dawns and manufacturer hype across the decades for me to get excited just yet.
I'm not sure about this quantum computing. It may be useful in the future for cracking passwords, but at the moment it has a whiff of greasy snake, cold fusion and string theory about it. The disparity between public and private money is hard to miss, (private funding is very important, because somebody's head is on the block if it doesn't work)
Greasy snake? Um ... did you post in the wrong forum? 😀 And anyway, string theory is a highly respected theory that the majority of physicists ... oh, wait, um, that was last week. Sorry.
Quantum internet sounds very exciting. pardon my ignorance but one system of entanglement used an optical fibre to maintain entanglement. Where's the advantage over a regular fibre network?
It allows the transmission of quantum information, so allowing two or more quantum computers to be networked (ie it can communicate qubit states, not just bit states).
two questions: 1. In witch applications apart from random number generation do qbits have a benefit over "classic" computing 2. I alway thought that "enteglement" is a form of Einstein's "Spukhafte Fernwirkung". If so: Why do we need any "wires" to do it? If not: what are the differences?
Please cover the Olimex ESP32-SBC-FabGL, which has support for a DOS emulator, can run Turbo Pascal (under DOS) and is shipped with a native ESP32 version of Space Invaders for a VGA capable TV or monitor and a PS/2 keyboard. The ESP32 would have been a dream home computer in the 80s and 90s. It's capable of a lot more than just being a microcontroller for projects or a video game.
Quantum computing sounds interesting, as do most things with the word "quantum" preceding them, but I can't grasp how it could be useful in day to day life. We already have computers that can relay input errors across the globe in milliseconds, do we need to do it faster? I would think that network security and improved data storage and retrieval would be more of a priority. This is just my opinion because what I don't know about quantum computing far exceeds what I do know.

I would immediately report to dept head, if possible and avoid like the plague.
Someone that says there is no point in information security is not someone I would be likely to trust.
He _doesn't_ have a point. Quantum computers simply _don't_ make information security irrelevant, that's a fundamental misunderstanding of where quantum computers will be used _and_ what they're useful for.
@@anonymes2884 There seems to have been a fairly strong indication that they would do bad things to existing encryption methods...oh... five, ten years ago? So one could see where such a misunderstanding could come from if that wasn't his field of expertise...
Of course, my understanding is that a lot of effort was since put into plugging that hole before such devices were available to people who could use them for such purposes, and that quantum computers capable of generating even stronger encryption that would Not be trivialised in such a fashion are easier to attain than quantum computers able to trivialise current encryption.
He sounds like a dickhead, did you explain to him that cybersecurity was still very relevant and that quantum methods for cracking it are still theoretical and not yet practical.
And again. Here I'm here to watch the Quantum Computing Updates.

The ability to produce errors at an unprecedented rate will undoubtedly enhance our "lived experience" 😊 !

Thank you for your annual quantum computing update. Your ability to present this material in an extremely lucid manner along with citations really elevates your channel content to a level not typically experienced on youtube. Much appreciate the work you put into this endeavor.
Hello Sir, One video on SDRs( Software defined Radio) please.
Indeed a small SDR would be wonderful to have as a module for part of pi or such, and a video to go alongside.
(I must say I was very intrigued by the card computer last week. I've been debating throwing it on my list.)
Just go for it, you won’t regret buying one.
Remember to be careful of what frequencies you broadcast on!
It may be illegal to broadcast on some frequencies without a license so check your county’s laws.
@@karandiya8179 I have a USB SDR dongle. Played with it for a bit but then discovered a really significant side effect/design flaw: Heat. While they work as advertised, those cheap little SDR packages also get extremely hot to the point that they could start melting components and initiate an electrical fire. Also, half of the interesting stuff you might want to look at is encrypted these days, which the SDR obviously can't decode. You can see the communication happening on the visualization software, but it's useless without a decryption key.
hopefully using a raspberry pi
I wrote an essay about quantum computers in 1985 Usenet. Basic idea was that we were operating in "branching time" and one of those branches might sometimes be applicable in the present timeline. This was done in totally tongue-in-cheek of course, because I am stupid-as-duck. To my astonishment leading experts, like David Deutch, started discussing this approach, but I did not understand much anything.
In 40 years later, the quantum computing revolution has produced nothing but fraudulent claims. Quantum computing is the mother load for con artists.
Great topic to start the week with! I love keeping up with technology, code and AI development, but life gets busy and it is fantastic to get updates from my armchair and a good cup of coffee! As ever, thank you!
A police officer pulls over Heisenberg. The officer asks, "Do you know how fast you were going?" Heisenberg responds, "No, but I know exactly where I am." The officer informs him, "You were going 20 miles over the speed limit." Heisenberg looks panicked and says, "Great, now I'm lost!"
I was uncertain about that joke but I upvoted it on principle.
Not everyone will get this! 😂 Loved it!
Now that's funny; I don't care if you aren't a particle theorist.
I love the joke.
The Titanic did not sink. It only hit a Heisenberg.
Quantum computers can simultaneously provide you the correct answer and the incorrect answer both at the same time. seems more like a politician than a computer.
i like this explanation
Thank you for the update. I've been on the subject for years and have studied as far as knowledge is available. The superposition is a bit of a definition matter. It doesn't actually mean that a particle can have two states simultaneously. It merely means that the moment the position is being measured, the state has changed to an unknown due to extreme speeds and unpredictable quantum dynamics. The problem with Qubits is devising dependable and viable means of chance calculation with the lowest error rate possible. Entanglement is well explained here. Long distance communication by this phenomena is opening a box of pandore but the potential is off the scale. Thanks for the update.
Thanks for the update, however Quatum computing goes over my head , my brain is not big enough for it.
Spooky action at a distance
Same here!
I’m only just now seeing this. I forget about the updates every year until they happen. Thanks!
Greetings! And thanks for watching.
Morning Chris. Have a Cup of tea :)

@@ExplainingComputers Are there parralels between Q-computing and a watercomputer? And if you're able to "listen" in to the error-correction are they really that safe as a means of communication?
I have been wondering that since Gold, in a monatomic state, can achieve superconductivity at room temperature, why nobody has ever considered trying to design a Quantum Computer using that instead of relying on the Supercooling method for achieving superconductivity. Depending on the amount of Monatomic Gold is required, it might end up being far cheaper to operate in the long run
I REALLY look forward to these quantum computing updates. Thank you for all the hard work and research.
Thank you Chris, you make this topic digestible and interesting ....
Thanks for your kind words and support. :)
I've understood about 0.1% of that, interesting video tho. But still waiting for a Quantum Laptop.
It will be better and worse than a regular laptop at the same time hahaha
Chris, now you've done it! I didn't understand ONE WORD of what you said. I guess I have some reading to do on this topic ...
Thanks Chris for this update video and your excellent analysis on Quantum Computers!
Now I hope I’m in still a state in Quantum Flux, when you make your 1st personal Quantum computer video…😂!
Have a great day!
For practical applications, quantum computers have solved pathing problems. In one case, 90% of a new circuit was discarded due to observable quantum effect supplanting the need for most of the circuit's logic. The other case was fuel transportation paths. In this case, a quantum computer increased the path-efficiency by 45%. It was earlier attempted with classical algorithms with no solution reached.
Thanks for the quantum update kind Sir! Have an awesome week Mr. Barnatt!!!
Very interesting, it's great seeing where we are heading. Quantum computing will just happen on the back end systems and networks, we won't even know it. Anyway, the first computer I maintained was a CDC6600 (designed by Seymour Cray), so I've been looking forward for a long time.
And even a small quantum computer can do in less than a second---for certain computations---what a Cray 3 took a week to complete. Progress huh? I suggest we don't allow CrowdStrike to get their hands on one 🙂
If it is 'quantum' U do not need a 'network' & there is no 'speed', because 'superposition' means it is instantaneous, & 'entanglement' means U don't need 2 connect them. It's all a ridiculous $cam. N E 'quantum network' isn't =)) Wat U wood hav insted iz 2 'devices' separated by empty space & no 'wireless' or whatever else, & could transmit (4 example) random binary code overseas & compare the pattern 2 show it matches. Nobody has done this, & if they pretend they did, it is fraud. It will never happen because 'superposition' & 'entanglement' do not exist. They R theoretical math bull$hit like the 'parallel universes' theories = just sillyness.

Thank you Chris for the interesting update even though I found some of it difficult to comprehend. Hopefully as the technology moves from infancy to maturity in the not to distant future it’ll be something that can benefit the future of Human kind through medical research, engineering & science etc.
You mentioned about security of quantum computing clusters being impossible to intercept communications without being detected, what’s to stop a state player with a quantum system eventually hacking into it & causing havoc around the World? :)
Hi, Alan!
I look forward to making friends with androids that have quantum computing hardware powering their minds.

Another great video and wonderful to see Rolls-Royce getting a mention 😊
It would be nice if you could do a video about how computers generate random numbers. There are many misconceptions about this topic, and when I asked myself this question, I couldn’t find a good video explaining it. Thanks!
Noted!
Hey Christopher, have you read Timeline by Michael Crichton? They discuss quantum computing and physics at length in that novel.
Wikipedia: Bra-ket notation was created by Paul Dirac in his 1939 publication A New Notation for Quantum Mechanics. The notation was introduced as an easier way to write quantum mechanical expressions. The name comes from the English word "bracket".
And if all these companies said it's all been marketing BS, even the above-average Joe wouldn't be surprised...
Nice video and it's great that you're giving us an informed look into this technology. Thank you Chris.
Thanks for this comprehensive update!

Great Video Chris, All the pattern I have seen on these Quantum PC, will use very little wire electron communication as we used today! For those who have "Fiber-optic internet", commonly can reach speeds of up to 10 Gigabits per second (Gbps) in some areas. You are already closed to Quantum PC?

quantumstability at room temperature(and far above) now also is a thing.
even though that speciffic tech is designed and tested(as in confirmed working reliably in pretty much any normal circumstances without needing something to clean the signal or stabilize it) for quantum actuation instead of quantum computing.
as the device from which the very first prototype made the same morning the effect as discovered/come up with, using materials just laying around actually directly worked, this should suggest how stable it is and how easy to make it once you know how it works.
the researcher/innovator however mostly focussed on the effect behind it, but the device itself is essentially a quantum programmer.
which is in simple words a device which can create stable or semi stable quantum effects in normal materials with ease and also easily alter them. so controlled programmable quantum effects.
which allows to quite litterally program and controll physics themselves, ofcource rigth now it is mostly just done for certain quantum effects which normally only happen in special materials around the absolute 0 point, but once in the hand of random hackers and other forms of hobbyists and developers people can make way more effects with it based on this tech and the simple principle behind it.
in normal materials like mercury, aluminium, wood(living), and also the same silicone wafers used for chip making.
as in that on it's very first day it was already possibly to mass produce it using standard production processes(technically seen as there was no direct layout design for such mashines to use, but that is very easy compared to even super simple chip designs.
these could then both hold the hardware to program it as well as the materials being programmed.
I originally designed this device to test amplifying certain measurement methods, as well as to simulate certain quantum effects which normally only happen at insanely cold temperatures, but got it working without any funding and without any proper materials, just some electronics thigns I just had laying around, a arduino uno to power it and controll it combined with a small physical setup. and having many scrapped parts from old electronics devices many of which might be damaged or broken, and cheap parts which probably are ripoffs or failed items with terrible quality compared to the real deal.
one of the existing quantum technologies listed in the video seems to be close to it in some ways of it's base working from what I got when rapidly looking up it's working.
even though I ofcource only rapidly looked it up, and also from that it still has notable differences, since the most easy way to describe how the quantum programmer works is by creating some kind of gohst matter, or quantum mater, which is kind of like a new form of virtual matter which can overlay and exist in or move through normal physical matter, essentially it is quantum matter, which only really exists in the "quantum realm"(note that this is heavily oversimplified, you can also find and detect it normally with the right hardware, but then it won't be a material, since the reason it forms that material like state is because essentially it programs things in other dimensions like the Time dimension as well as things which most people would not even see like a realm or dimension but this tech can treat them as such, hard to explain without telling exactly how it works, since the base working is very simple and logic since it is actually the same way normal physics effects and mater are formed.
how modular it is is fascinating however, since it kind of is like wizard magic but then technological, entire new areas which where never even concidered now opening up to potentially actually be very easy and cheap.
also controllable quantum effects means that unlike traditional quantum effects which stay static when on and don't work when off, these effects can be programmed and can change shape or change their effect or power.
it is truly fun.
sadly not really any interest from groups who have the capacity to properly publish it and help protect it against patent trolls and such.
also ofcource since this is one of those things where despite it already working many people would still doubt it working and also can't see the potential, for that it would require disclosing how exactly it works, which is very risky in this field since if you are a small hobbyist who isn't rich or famous, in that field over 99% of the time some random other person will just copy it and run away with it.

🎉🎉 QuantumParty! 🎉🎉 Thx Chris for the updates.
It is interesting to see how fast Quantum Computing has gone. It is also scary at the same time, since it will take a quantum computer to run real AI. We must use wisdom and patience to make sure the servant doesn't become the master.
Greetings Mr Barnatt.
Nice of you for dropping this quantum computing update video. It appears that IBM is likely a player that's making any headway in utilising the quantum technologies. China and likes might have jumped the bandwagon enthusiastically, but they're suffering from the lack of problems to solve. Reasoning why the Chinese have stuttered in their run this year. Let's see how this year unfolds in the application aspect.
'Quantum Computing' is a bit of a money laundering $cam on top of the more obvious fraud, like 'modern art' that isn't 'art' at all but just splashes & swooshes, & crazy prices 2 'move funds around' 2 their buddies. The very idea of 'superposition' 'entanglement' is all a big joke.
As of 2024, quantum computing continues to advance rapidly, with several key developments and trends emerging:
### 1. **Increased Qubit Counts**
- Many companies and research institutions are achieving higher qubit counts in their quantum processors. This is crucial for enhancing computational power and addressing more complex problems.
### 2. **Error Correction Techniques**
- Progress in quantum error correction is a significant focus, as it is essential for building reliable quantum computers. Techniques like surface codes and other innovative methods are being developed to mitigate errors caused by decoherence and noise.
### 3. **Hybrid Quantum-Classical Algorithms**
- There’s growing interest in hybrid approaches that combine quantum and classical computing. Algorithms like the Quantum Approximate Optimization Algorithm (QAOA) and Variational Quantum Eigensolver (VQE) are being refined for practical applications, particularly in optimization and materials science.
### 4. **Commercial Applications**
- Industries are increasingly exploring quantum computing applications. Sectors such as pharmaceuticals, finance, and logistics are investigating how quantum algorithms can improve drug discovery, risk analysis, and supply chain optimization.
### 5. **Quantum Software Development**
- The development of quantum programming languages and software tools is expanding. Frameworks like Qiskit, Cirq, and others are becoming more robust, enabling more researchers and developers to experiment with quantum algorithms.
### 6. **Quantum Networking**
- Research into quantum communication and networking is progressing, with experiments on quantum key distribution (QKD) and entanglement swapping. This could lead to secure communication channels and the foundation for a future quantum internet.
### 7. **Government and Institutional Support**
- Many governments are investing in quantum technologies, establishing funding programs and initiatives to boost research and development. This includes partnerships between academia and industry to foster innovation.
### 8. **Commercial Quantum Computers**
- Companies like IBM, Google, and Rigetti are offering cloud-based access to quantum computers, allowing businesses and researchers to experiment without needing to own the hardware.
### 9. **Quantum Hardware Diversity**
- Various technologies for building quantum computers are being explored, including superconducting qubits, trapped ions, and topological qubits. This diversity may lead to breakthroughs in stability and scalability.
### 10. **Public Awareness and Education**
- As the field grows, public interest and education initiatives are increasing. More resources are becoming available for learning about quantum computing, including online courses, workshops, and outreach programs.
### Conclusion
Overall, 2024 is shaping up to be a pivotal year for quantum computing, characterized by advancements in technology, growing commercial interest, and increased collaboration across sectors. The potential applications of quantum computing continue to expand, promising transformative impacts in various fields. 👍👌
Great post, thanks for sharing.

One who gains strength by overcoming obstacles possesses the only strength which can overcome adversity.
Outstanding summary !
Materials science is bound to benefit substantially from qantum computing. The ability to use a whole range of material properties across an immense set of combinations to quickly find optimal solutions could be important for the ongoing development of renewable technologies. Power generation from fusion also depends on the development of many new materials (practical tritium breeding blankets for example)
Thanks.
So we will get entanglement charges instead of internet charges.
I have very poor knowledge of quantum computing, I tried to understand but was unable. Tank you for trying.
Thanks for watching! :)
Quantum computers utilize "qubits," which harness the properties of particles such as "spin." Electrons, as quantum objects, exist in an unpredictable superposition state, typically observed as "up" and "down" due to the Stern-Gerlach experiment. In this superposition, an electron's state vector can point in any direction simultaneously, representing an infinite number of states between "up" and "down." Despite the mathematical differences between negative and positive states in quantum mechanics, they are physically identical and experimentally indistinguishable. Quantum computers exploit this superposition property to perform immense computations instantaneously.
This video was a real treat. Thank you Christopher!
Look it's 6:30 and Chris Sir uploaded his new video 😍😍😍
do you have in-depth videos about the ACTUAL algorithms used in QC?
Not yet! :) The IBM, Google and Microsoft quantum websites have excellent resources and courses.
I just wish, I didn't have to blindly believe this multistate bits. I mean how can the computer get the correct instruction. So bits can be 1, 0, and both at the same time. How does a computer decide which state it represents? I'm confused? But I know you wouldn't lie to us, so you get my vote. Thanks for sharing, Chris.
I’ll pull a Cunningham’s law and practice: They’re quite good at generating numbers simultaneously. It can be used for password cracking. If there’s a 2 bit computer, there are 4 states 2^2. 32 bits, is 2^32, is 4.3 billion possible states. A perfectly stable quantum computer only needs 32 qubits to generate 4.3 billion possible combinations at the same time. They’re also incredibly good at large prime factorization. This can do some fancy stuff like being faster than Shor’s algorithm. That allows it to crack asymmetric cryptography in a realistically short time.
You can also see that their power increases exponentially with qubits instead of linearly with transistors.
@@yensteel Thank you for trying to help me grapple with what to me is like conjuring something out of nothing. I am 64 and now have a new appreciation of why my grandparents found things so hard to understand. I'm don't think it's an age thing as much as the era we grew up in (we almost seem sort of; tied there).
@@brianwood5220 To be honest, I’m confused here as well. Just wanted to break the ice XD. Most of the people in the world are confused with quantum computing, we’re not alone :)
@@yensteel The things you mention like password cracking and prime factorization are things it could do if they make it work at scale, right? But they can't come close to that, can they? Isn't it all hype and VC funding at this stage? And how do you perform logical operations on two qbits? And how do you make a "quantum network" using entanglement? Doesn't Bell's theorem preclude that? I don't know anything about this topic either, but it seems like the hype is out of control. I'll pay more attention when it can do something impressive.
@@jcc4tube The prime factorization algorithm has been developed and tested by the Chinese already. The other things like merging them with classical computing are experimental. It is getting some hype, as it’s a new topic and I am upset that google pulled some marketing stunts. Still, these kinds of tech needs many years, even decades to bear fruit. For example, EUV, the manufacturing technique that lets TSMC make such small and efficient chips down to 2nm was invented in the 1980s. Researchers at the time thought 3 other techniques had higher potential before taking it more seriously. It took 30 years to make it a workable tech in manufacturing.
Many skeptics here don’t realize how much effort and steps are needed to get a technology feasible and seem far too short sighted and impatient.
10:35 Superposition is a single state (just one comprised of a linear combination of terms that are _also_ valid states) so the claim that qubits "exist in more than one state" is interpretation dependent opinion rather than statement of fact (at least for widely accepted values of "exist" :).
(just a pet peeve about how quantum physics is presented, especially to lay people)
Whilst I appreciate your point, I always check (and re-check periodically) against a great many sources when making any statement in my quantum computing videos. And the notion that qubits can exist in more than more state is very widely presented, including by Microsoft and any others.
The shame in all of this is how to most individual, they don't see how much potential this will change. The light bulb/transistor method is due to be superseded. What we currently have as computers and networks just won't be the same. 👍
Great update! And now, a question: If quantum internet is in the works, does that mean quantum social networking isn't too far off?
Yes people will be able to say what they did today and tomorrow!
Hey Ford what an interesting question, in a quantum world we could end up being instantaneously liked & disliked 🤣or 🥰 ;)

@@Praxibetel-Ix Yeah we could do a round trip, first stop Mars, Saturn, Jupiter & Venus then visit a few moons ending up with Uranus & still be back in time for dinner 😂
The real question is how long before QC becomes the most-hyped tech, taking the crown from AI? I mean, it's already a buzzword, but generally we have to have a period of excessive hype followed by everybody giving up on it before actually getting a useful quantum platform to market can happen.
Good vid, prof.

Hello there. I was wondering: have you made a video about antiviruses for Linux? This to me is the biggest flaw about the distributions. That whole “it's more secure than Windows” thing isn't enough for me.
I've not, as antivirus for Linux is rare and debatabe in use -- Linux simply does not allow applications of any kind to me installed without user autorization. But I may cover this in a video at some point soon! It is certainly topical, given that the "Windows problem" last week was not a Windows problem at all, but rather a problem using a particular, third-party anti-malware program in Windows! :)

We are the edge of quantum computing looking toward the future of vast and endless possibilities. Once they iron out the bit flip errors then we will be good to go. Amazon and IBM are spending plethora amounts of cash on their own development of quantum computing. They would not be investing in this technology unless they see the potential and $$$$ from it. I am excited to see the quantum footprint grow in 2025!
I'll believe more when I can experience it. There have been too many false dawns and manufacturer hype across the decades for me to get excited just yet.

I'm not sure about this quantum computing. It may be useful in the future for cracking passwords, but at the moment it has a whiff of greasy snake, cold fusion and string theory about it. The disparity between public and private money is hard to miss, (private funding is very important, because somebody's head is on the block if it doesn't work)
Greasy snake? Um ... did you post in the wrong forum? 😀 And anyway, string theory is a highly respected theory that the majority of physicists ... oh, wait, um, that was last week. Sorry.
Quantum internet sounds very exciting. pardon my ignorance but one system of entanglement used an optical fibre to maintain entanglement. Where's the advantage over a regular fibre network?
It allows the transmission of quantum information, so allowing two or more quantum computers to be networked (ie it can communicate qubit states, not just bit states).
two questions:
1. In witch applications apart from random number generation do qbits have a benefit over "classic" computing
2. I alway thought that "enteglement" is a form of Einstein's "Spukhafte Fernwirkung". If so: Why do we need any "wires" to do it? If not: what are the differences?
Please cover the Olimex ESP32-SBC-FabGL, which has support for a DOS emulator, can run Turbo Pascal (under DOS) and is shipped with a native ESP32 version of Space Invaders for a VGA capable TV or monitor and a PS/2 keyboard.

So far we always have to know the answer before we can set up the qubits to get that answer.
To bring anything into your life, imagine that it's already there.
So much good information, I’m watching again. 😁
You apparently use "may" and "will" interchangeably in reference to quantum computing.
No, I don't. My words are scripted very carefully in this video.
Quantum computing sounds interesting, as do most things with the word "quantum" preceding them, but I can't grasp how it could be useful in day to day life. We already have computers that can relay input errors across the globe in milliseconds, do we need to do it faster? I would think that network security and improved data storage and retrieval would be more of a priority. This is just my opinion because what I don't know about quantum computing far exceeds what I do know.
